“Circumstances surrounding a shooting incident at about 8.50pm whereby two men were fatally injured and a woman (injured) are under investigation.

“A double murder and an attempted murder case was registered for further investigation,” he says.

Ralston’s mother Janet Segals says this was her son’s first weekend home in two months.

“On Friday I was hesitant to fetch him, but then I decided to go,” she tells the Daily Voice.

“I was on my way to the shop on Sunday then he told me he would go instead and minutes after he left the house, we heard the gunshots. He never made it to the shop, when I ran out he was already dead,” she cries.

Janet says her son was not a gangster and could not say who the intended victim was.

“He gave his heart to the Lord while he was in rehab,” says the grieving mother.

“I am glad the Lord saved his soul. On Sunday he sang (gospel choruses) all day, so his soul knew it was his time.”
